Come celebrate craft and the artistic process with us. Our liveliest First Friday (and that’s saying a lot), Demo Night is an Art Center tradition that started in 2007. Local and regional artists and craftspeople fill the galleries with all kinds of materials and demonstrate their techniques. Painting, hatmaking, fiber art, dance, graphic design, and lampworking with molten glass are just some of the art forms you’ll get to witness. Our ceramics team will be at the potters’ wheels and tending to the Raku kiln, and staff member Rachel Egelston will be up to her usual artistic mischief. Demo Night activities are appropriate for all ages. For some visitors the enjoyment comes from watching these artists do what they do best; for others, it’s about becoming part of the process. This is a chance to feel the energy artists imbue in their own studios every single day, and maybe get some inspiration while you’re at it. We’ll see you there!Click here for the event website

“Take 70’s inspired funk, double the tempo, and then add in whatever next comes to mind. It sounds like a hipster experiment that would
more...0 result in a sound that could only be appreciated ironically. Instead, it is the combination that has resulted in one of Grand Junction’s most successful bands, Tight Thump”. – GRAND VALLEY LIVE
“The name Tight Thump comes from staying ‘tight’ or musicians slang for being precise and staying perfectly ‘in the pocket’,” Tight Thump’s bassist Allen Bradley said. “‘Thump’ is something I picked up from old Parliament albums, which is a big influence on our sound.”
